Cardamom is known as the "Queen of Spices." 👸

For over 3,000 years, this emerald-green pod has been revered.

Ancient Egyptians incorporated it into their sacred incense rituals.

Ayurvedic healers used it to invigorate prana, the essential life energy. 🫁

In Arabian cultural practices, coffee ceremonies would be considered incomplete without its inclusion. ☕

It aromatically promotes mood and mental clarity. 😍

It is known to benefit digestion 😋 supporting assimilation and aid respiratory health (contains 1,8 cineole).

For centuries, herbalists have relied on this remedy to invigorate the mind while calming the nerves, offering mental clarity without causing excessive stimulation. 🧘

About Sarah LoBisco, ND, IFCMP & BreakFree Medicine

As a licensed naturopathic doctor and certified functional medicine practitioner, my passion is to empower individuals to achieve their current health goals. This is to remove the blockages of fear and worry of diseases and symptoms that keep them from living their passions and fullest lives.

My typical client comes in with reports of some or all of the following: mood disturbances, digestive issues, hormonal and menstrual irregularities, and low energy. They may have other diagnoses such as ADHD, anxiety, autoimmunity, bipolar, celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, depression, OCD, thyroid disease, or other complaints of just “feeling not right.”

I help these individuals (and often their family members) get to the root cause of their symptoms. I do my health detective work and utilize my knowledge of biochemical individuality and epigenetics to individualize a wellness plan that aims to bring them back into health harmony. In our consults, we search out any hidden factors or blockages that will inhibit their body and mind from getting what they need to be optimized and revitalized. We then work together to go over their wellness plan and agree on an action plan that fits best for their needs and goals.

I match each person’s unique genetic makeup and environmental influences with the best supplemental nutritional, herbals, essential oils, and lifestyle practices that work for them at the current time. This protocol is updated and tweaked as they regain body harmony. Once their main symptoms are resolved, they typically pop-in for bi-yearly “wellness visits” and “health optimization.”
